Default Overhead DVD player...

Could someone tell me what brand/model of DVD player is a good one or where to get reviews on them? I have a 2005 Durango SXT with a Directed Video All-In-One overhead DVD (7" inch screen) unit in it. The unit is crap. I liked it cuz it was slot loading and had the features I wanted, but after several replacements I am still having problems with the current replacement. I am taking it in Monday because the infrared headphones are not working and the LCD has a red tint all the time. Anyway, if they can't fix this one on Monday, I am gonna start shopping for a new All-In-One. Any ideas? I would like the new one to have a 9" or larger screen and would like it to be slot-loading. I am having problems finding a good brand. Any help and my 5-yr. old son will personally thank you.

Thanks
Rez

Hmm you might check there in your state and see if a Lemon Law pertains to you. When I was designing my DVD system, I looked at Alpine ($$$) and Sony. I aways have liked Sony for video products. I buy nothing but Sony Digital cams, plus home DVD player. The reason I went with Kenwood is I liked the way Girinner's looked in his Magnum. Plus I have heard nothing but good of it. One thing you might do is a Consumer Reports or goodle search on "TOP 10 car DVD players" and see what happens.

I work with a few brands at Circuit City, and I'd have to recommend the Panasonic 9" or the Audiovox 10.2" Model.

Both offer great picture, and slot-loading designs. The audiovox is really cool because the screen itself comes out of the overhead docking station, and with a small battery pack, it can be a FULLY portable DVD player with screen. I'd check into both.
